Keith is a sports fanatic through and through. He has been immersed in the sports world as far back as he can remember, and played competitive baseball in high school and college (University of California -- San Diego) as a four-year captain. He also dabbled semi-professionally overseas for a short time before becoming obsessed with fantasy sports, starting in 2006. He's been writing and editing fantasy content ever since, with stops at KFFL and USA TODAY Sports. He has played alongside some of the brightest fantasy minds in the industry, including LABR (League of Alternate Baseball Reality).

Andy Dalton In Make-Or-Break Year?

Cincinnati Bengals owner Mike Brown said the team won't consider extending quarterback Andy Dalton before the 2019 season. Dalton's final year of his contract is in 2020, so the upcoming season with new head coach Zac Taylor will be very important for his future in Cincinnati. The 31-year-old signal-caller played in just 11 games due […]


Carlos Correa Not Playing On Opening Day

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa (neck) is not in the Opening Day lineup on Thursday. Correa's neck injury isn't believed to be serious, but it's worth watching. Consider him day-to-day for now. Aledmys Diaz will fill in at the 6 on Thursday against Rays ace Blake Snell and will hit eighth in the order. Diaz […]


Connor Joe Gets The Nod In Left Field

San Francisco Giants outfielder Connor Joe is starting in left field and batting sixth on Opening Day on Thursday against Padres starter Eric Lauer in his major league debut. Michael Reed is starting in right field and hitting seventh. Both Joe and Reed should see decent playing time in the Giants rebuilding outfield to start […]


Corey Seager Batting Second On Opening Day

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager is batting second on Opening Day on Thursday against Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zack Greinke. Seager is making his return after elbow and hip surgeries ended his 2018 very early. In 14 career at-bats against Greinke, Seager is hitting .429 with two home runs and four RBI. Not only is […]


Jorge Polanco Starting Thursday

Minnesota Twins shortstop Jorge Polanco (arm) is in the lineup for Opening Day on Thursday and is hitting second against Indians starter Corey Kluber. Polanco had been dealing with some arm fatigue as spring training closed, but he never appeared to be in much danger of missing the season opener. His fantasy value in season-long […]


Jose Ramirez In Opening Day Lineup

Cleveland Indians third baseman Jose Ramirez (knee) is in the Opening Day lineup on Thursday and will hit third against Twins starter Jose Berrios. It was uncertain whether Ramirez would start after he fouled a ball off his knee last weekend in the Cactus League. He's one of the best overall fantasy options and should […]


Nick Margevicius To Make Debut Saturday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Nick Margevicius will make his major league debut on Saturday when he gets the start against the Giants at home. The 22-year-old southpaw hasn't pitched above Single-A and is likely just making a spot start early in the season for the Friars. It speaks to how weak San Diego's starting […]


David Bote Starting At Second Base

Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote is starting at second base and hitting sixth on Opening Day on Thursday against Rangers starting pitcher Mike Minor. With Addison Russell suspended and the Cubs facing a lefty, Bote gets the call instead of lefty outfielder Kyle Schwarber. The 25-year-old hit .275/.381/.490 with two homers and seven RBI in […]


Ryan McMahon Hitting Seventh For Rockies

Colorado Rockies second baseman Ryan McMahon is starting at second base and batting seventh on Opening Day on Thursday against Marlins starter Jose Urena. McMahon swung the bat really well in spring training and won the starting job at the keystone over Garrett Hampson, but he'll have to perform to continue seeing regular playing time. […]


Jose Osuna Placed On Injured List

The Pittsburgh Pirates placed outfielder Jose Osuna (neck) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday. Osuna had a chance to be on the Opening Day roster as a bench bat, and he likely would've seen some playing time in right field with Gregory Polanco (shoulder) not expected to return until May. Instead, Melky Cabrera will […]


Danny Duffy Officially Put On Injured List

The Kansas City Royals placed starting pitcher Danny Duffy (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday. It's an issue that dates back to the close of last season, and the left-hander might not return to the starting rotation until May. Duffy wasn't very good last year even when healthy, going 8-12 with a 4.88 […]


Matt Duffy Placed On Injured List

The Tampa Bay Rays placed third baseman Matt Duffy (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday. Duffy was pretty much hurt all of spring training and might not return until sometime in August. He's only worth stashing in AL-only leagues. Yandy Diaz will start at the hot corner on Opening Day and figures to […]


Victor Robles Hitting Ninth On Opening Day

Washington Nationals outfielder Victor Robles is starting in center field and batting ninth on Opening Day on Thursday against Mets starter Jacob deGrom. The 21-year-old Robles had 17 hits in 59 at-bats (.288) and three home runs in 21 games for the Nats last year and has a lot of upside, but his ceiling is […]


Jonathan Villar Batting Third Against Yanks

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jonathan Villar is hitting third against Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka on Opening Day on Thursday. Villar is useful to fantasy owners in all leagues because of his speed, mostly, but he'll also have a chance to drive in runs in the middle of the O's lineup. He's hitting .333 but has […]


Franklin Barreto Likely To Be Optioned

Oakland Athletics shortstop Franklin Barreto is likely to start the year in the minors after the team acquired first baseman/designated hitter Kendrys Morales on Wednesday night. The 23-year-old still has time to develop into a decent major league player and should be back with Oakland eventually, but he's hit only .215/.252/.424 with seven home runs […]


Peter Alonso Likely To Hit Second Thursday

New York Mets first baseman Peter Alonso is likely to hit second in the Opening Day lineup on Thursday against Nationals ace Max Scherzer, which means outfielder Juan Lagares is expected to hit seventh. Alonso is a budding power prospect that needs to be owned in all leagues, but he'll face a tough task right […]


Red Sox Not Naming Closer Before Opening Day

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said he won't name a closer with Opening Day on Thursday. However, Cora said he's known since November how he'd approach the ninth inning, he's just not tipping his hand. Matt Barnes and Ryan Brasier will likely be used in situations with the highest leverage at the end of […]


Anthony Alford Being Added To 25-Man Roster

It looks as though the Toronto Blue Jays will add outfielder Anthony Alford to the 25-man roster after they traded first baseman/designated hitter Kendrys Morales to the A's on Wednesday night. The former top prospect of the Blue Jays has hit just .111/.172/.148 with one RBI and a steal in just 29 plate appearances for […]


Michael A. Taylor, Howie Kendrick Begin On Injured List

The Washington Nationals placed outfielder Michael A. Taylor (hip, knee), second baseman Howie Kendrick (hamstring) and relief pitcher Koda Glover (forearm) on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday. All three players likely won't be ready until at least mid-April, with Taylor's injuries likely to keep him out possibly until May. Taylor has an intriguing mix […]


Bengals Want To Extend A.J. Green

The Cincinnati Bengals seem interested in a long-term contract extension with wide receiver A.J. Green, who is entering the final year of his current contract. Green has been one of the best receivers in the game in his eight seasons in the league -- he had five straight 1,000-yard seasons to open his career -- […]


Jake Noll Makes Nationals Roster

Washington Nationals infielder Jake Noll has made the team's Opening Day 25-man roster out of nowhere. He'll be part of a five-man bench that includes Kurt Suzuki, Andrew Stevenson, Wilmer Difo and Matt Adams. Noll is a 25-year-old that hasn't had a single at-bat above Double-A ball, but he'll provide the Nats with infield flexibility […]


Miguel Sano Has Sutures Removed

Minnesota Twins third baseman Miguel Sano (Achilles) had his sutures removed in Florida on Tuesday. Sano will continue his rehab and isn't expected to be available until sometime in May. The 25-year-old has tremendous power but his fantasy stock is way down after he struggled with injuries and with a .199/.281/.398 slash line in 71 […]


Jorge Polanco Expected To Be Fine For Opener

Minnesota Twins chief baseball officer Derek Falvey said the team has "every expectation" that shortstop Jorge Polanco (arm) will be good to go on Opening Day on Thursday. Polanco and the Twins are facing Indians ace Corey Kluber, so avoiding Polanco in DFS is the right move, especially if he's not 100 percent. The 25-year-old […]


Rafael Devers To Hit Third On Opening Day

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers will hit third on Opening Day on Thursday against Mariners left-hander Marco Gonzales. However, first baseman Steve Pearce (calf), who is starting on the injured list, will typically hit third against left-handers when he's healthy. Devers swings from the left side, so his matchup on Opening Day isn't […]


DeMarcus Lawrence Seeking $22.5 Million Annually

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, who was hit with the franchise tag, is seeking $22.5 million per season in long-term contract negotiations. Lawrence went from asking for an average salary of $20 million to $22.5 million in the last few weeks, and the two sides aren't anywhere close to common ground right now. Despite […]


Angels Claim Brian Goodwin Off Waivers

The Los Angeles Angels claimed outfielder Brian Goodwin off waivers from the Royals on Wednesday, according to a source. Goodwin failed to make the Royals roster after a dismal spring training, but he'll help provide the Halos with some outfield depth now that Justin Upton (toe) will begin the year on the injured list. Goodwin, […]


Vladimir Guerrero Jr. To Say In Florida To Rehab

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (oblique) is expected to stay in Florida for another week to rehab. After that, the Blue Jays will likely send Guerrero to Triple-A to get more rehab work in game situations. Once he's ready, the top prospect in baseball is expected to make his major league debut, […]


Doug Baldwin Out 6-8 Weeks

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said wide receiver Doug Baldwin (hernia) is expected to be out six to eight weeks after his latest surgery for a sports hernia. It's already Baldwin's third surgery of the offseason, which isn't great news for anyone, let alone a player that turned 30 last September. Although Baldwin finished […]


Browns Cooling On Trading Duke Johnson?

It appears the Cleveland Browns have cooled on attempting to trade running back Duke Johnson. "I don’t know why we would ever want to, like, just voluntarily give up a good football player. Duke Johnson is a good football player. Duke Johnson will have a role on our football team," head coach Freddie Kitchens said. […]


Browns Expect Odell Beckham Jr. To Report Monday

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is expected to report to the team for the start of offseason workouts on Monday. Because the Browns have a new head coach in Freddie Kitchens, they are allowed to start their offseason program early on April 1. OBJ's offseason schedule was turned upside down by his trade […]
